Yesterday,
During Uncle Calvin and Aunty River‘s wedding
An old friend from school and I were talking
Lou Por,
He referred mid conversation
to his wife who was sitting just adjacent
I paused for just a moment
…
As Ye Ye used to call Ma Ma by that name
A sound bite from the deep recesses of my brain
One that is still replaying
Again and again
